Parameters
Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments |
---|---|---|
aws_access_key string | AWS access key. If not set then the value of the AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_ACCESS_KEY or EC2_ACCESS_KEY environment variable is used. If profile is set this parameter is ignored. Passing the aws_access_key and profile options at the same time has been deprecated and the options will be made mutually exclusive after 2022-06-01. aliases: ec2_access_key, access_key | |
aws_ca_bundle path | The location of a CA Bundle to use when validating SSL certificates. Only used for boto3 based modules. Note: The CA Bundle is read 'module' side and may need to be explicitly copied from the controller if not run locally. | |
aws_config dictionary | A dictionary to modify the botocore configuration. Parameters can be found at https://botocore.amazonaws.com/v1/documentation/api/latest/reference/config.html#botocore.config.Config. Only the 'user_agent' key is used for boto modules. See http://boto.cloudhackers.com/en/latest/boto_config_tut.html#boto for more boto configuration. | |
aws_secret_key string | AWS secret key. If not set then the value of the AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, AWS_SECRET_KEY, or EC2_SECRET_KEY environment variable is used. If profile is set this parameter is ignored. Passing the aws_secret_key and profile options at the same time has been deprecated and the options will be made mutually exclusive after 2022-06-01. aliases: ec2_secret_key, secret_key | |
blueprint_id string | ID of the instance blueprint image. Required when state=present
| |
bundle_id string | Bundle of specification info for the instance. Required when state=present. | |
debug_botocore_endpoint_logs boolean |
| Use a botocore.endpoint logger to parse the unique (rather than total) "resource:action" API calls made during a task, outputing the set to the resource_actions key in the task results. Use the aws_resource_action callback to output to total list made during a playbook. The ANSIBLE_DEBUG_BOTOCORE_LOGS environment variable may also be used. |
ec2_url string | Url to use to connect to EC2 or your Eucalyptus cloud (by default the module will use EC2 endpoints). Ignored for modules where region is required. Must be specified for all other modules if region is not used. If not set then the value of the EC2_URL environment variable, if any, is used. aliases: aws_endpoint_url, endpoint_url | |
key_pair_name string | Name of the key pair to use with the instance. If state=present and a key_pair_name is not provided, the default keypair from the region will be used. | |
name string / required | Name of the instance. | |
profile string | Uses a boto profile. Only works with boto >= 2.24.0. Using profile will override aws_access_key, aws_secret_key and security_token and support for passing them at the same time as profile has been deprecated.
aws_access_key, aws_secret_key and security_token will be made mutually exclusive with profile after 2022-06-01. aliases: aws_profile | |
region string | The AWS region to use. If not specified then the value of the AWS_REGION or EC2_REGION environment variable, if any, is used. See http://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/rande.html#ec2_region
aliases: aws_region, ec2_region | |
security_token string | AWS STS security token. If not set then the value of the AWS_SECURITY_TOKEN or EC2_SECURITY_TOKEN environment variable is used. If profile is set this parameter is ignored. Passing the security_token and profile options at the same time has been deprecated and the options will be made mutually exclusive after 2022-06-01. aliases: aws_security_token, access_token | |
state string |
| Indicate desired state of the target.
rebooted and restarted are aliases. |
user_data string | Launch script that can configure the instance with additional data. | |
validate_certs boolean |
| When set to "no", SSL certificates will not be validated for boto versions >= 2.6.0. |
wait boolean |
| Wait for the instance to be in state 'running' before returning. If wait=false an ip_address may not be returned. Has no effect when state=rebooted or state=absent. |
wait_timeout integer | Default: 300 | How long before wait gives up, in seconds. |
zone string | AWS availability zone in which to launch the instance. Required when state=present
|

orEC2_URL
,AWS_PROFILE
orAWS_DEFAULT_PROFILE
,AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID
orAWS_ACCESS_KEY
orEC2_ACCESS_KEY
,AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
orAWS_SECRET_KEY
orEC2_SECRET_KEY
,AWS_SECURITY_TOKEN

- Ansible uses the boto configuration file (typically ~/.boto) if no credentials are provided. See https://boto.readthedocs.io/en/latest/boto_config_tut.html
-
AWS_REGION
orEC2_REGION
can be typically be used to specify the AWS region, when required, but this can also be configured in the boto config file
Examples
- name: Create a new Lightsail instance community.aws.lightsail: state: present name: my_instance region: us-east-1 zone: us-east-1a blueprint_id: ubuntu_16_04 bundle_id: nano_1_0 key_pair_name: id_rsa user_data: " echo 'hello world' > /home/ubuntu/test.txt" register: my_instance - name: Delete an instance community.aws.lightsail: state: absent region: us-east-1 name: my_instance
